Big stage: Jayhawks wary of Spartans, Valentine | KUsports.com
“Very talented. He made first-team All-American preseason,” KU coach Bill Self said of Valentine, who scored 14 points off 5-of-8 shooting (3-of-5 from three) and grabbed seven rebounds in the Jayhawks’ 61-56 victory over the Spartans in the finals of 2014 Orlando Classic. “He can shoot. He can really pass,” Self added.

“The competitive integrity of the game is being tested by these cases,” attorney Jackson said in a text to the Journal-World. “When some of the top players in the sport are sitting and watching, the integrity of the game is really being impacted. He will be sitting on Kansas’ campus watching one of the biggest matchups of the year. This is damaging the sport!!!”

Michigan State will rely on Costello, Davis tonight vs. mighty Kansas
"It's the advantage of taking that trip, but Kansas does possess one of the best inside games that I think we'll face all year," coach Tom Izzo said. "They've got depth in there. They've got five or six guys. They've got experience in there with four out of the five guys, and the one that's not, (6-9 freshman Carlton Bragg), is a heck of a player. That's going to be a big challenge for us."

West Virginia moves to rushing attack | KUsports.com
The Mountaineers rank eighth in the Big 12 in passing offense — one spot behind Kansas — and junior quarterback Skyler Howard ranks just seventh in the conference in pass efficiency. The reason? Holgorsen knows what he has in running back Wendell Smallwood, and he’s not afraid to use him.

Arizona's Sean Miller uses press conference to throw shade at UCLA - CBSSports.com
"As a young kid, why would you ever want to come to a program or a place where nobody comes to the game?" Miller said late Monday, proving that there's never a bad time to talk to potential recruits. "I mean, that puts a lot of pressure on their recruiting. For us, you come here, you have an opportunity to play in front of 14,500. You've got that pregame introduction. You have the ZonaZoo. It feels like college basketball."

WATCH: Runner forced out at home on single to RF in Arizona Fall League - CBSSports.com
Yes, that's the ol' 9-2 force out. So technically it wasn't a single, it's a fielder's choice. But c'mon, that's a single with some bad baserunning. I'm not sure if I've ever seen a 9-2 force out before. Saguaros right fielder and Royals prospect Bubba Starling threw home for the force after Rabago's single dunked in. Crazy.
